Patchwork Pumpkin

I wanted to make a Fall card but with a twist for my class tonight. Why make a traditional orange pumpkin when you can do a purple-based patchwork pumpkin from the TAC Give Thanks stamp set! The pumpkin was stamped on the diamond patterned sheet from the TAC Penelope paper pack. I love that red/purple combo and thought it looked great on the pumpkin. I popped the purple from the paper with the ribbon and layered it on Kraft and another piece of Penelope. (click the image to see it larger) The acorns in the background are stamped with Violette Palette Ink.

I had a blast with my class tonight! What a great group of ladies! I hope you have good friends to laugh and chat with on a regular basis! I've got several groups - some are crafters and some are not and it's all good! It's so important to have laughter and love surrounding you and I am blessed! Thank you my friends!!

Happy Stamping!
